“As someone with deep roots in Ghana, being announced as an Ambassador for Opportunity International is incredibly meaningful to me. Travelling to Ghana and meeting Amama, a client of the organisation, brought the impact of this work to life in a very personal way. Seeing how access to finance, training and opportunity can empower individuals – particularly women – to build sustainable futures reaffirmed why this mission matters so deeply to me. I’m proud to help amplify this work and the extraordinary stories coming out of Ghana and beyond. I can't wait to get started!” - Afua Hagan.
Opportunity International is working to end global poverty. We believe that enabling individuals to create dignified and sustainable work is the foundation for transforming their lives, their children’s futures and their communities.
